I always keep tabs on the happenings all around the globe and beyond it. Courtesy of this wonderful habit of mine, I got to know recently that Pluto is no longer classified as a planet. I must admit that this fact has emotionally crushed me. They are calling it 134340 and they say it is no longer one of the 9 planets. Sigh!
In pre-primary school, drawing the 9 planets was a common exam question. I always used to mess up the order and colours of the other 8 planets, because back then I couldn't tell green from brown or yellow from red. I mean, I knew how these colour looked like and all but I just couldn't remember the names. Well in those days, I had more important things to worry about that stupid colours.
But I always got the far-away,lovely, little white planet right. I particularly enjoyed drawing the miniscule circle. The best part was that I never even filled the circle with any colour since the background was white, much to the chagrin of my, let's say 'dull' teachers.
I have been told that Pluto has been stripped of its status,mainly because of the discovery of some bigger, crappy peice of rock, which they are calling Eris. Eris? Eris sounds like the name someone would give their stupid pomerarian dog or something. Talking of names of dogs, do you know what I would name my first dog? Some of you do, don't you? And its revolutionary, isn't it? Well the genius of that idea can be discussed in another post.
Anyway, Pluto might have been demoted to 'dwarf' status since it doesn't 'clear the neighbourhood', but it was, is and will remain the distant enigma with matchless aura and charisma and my personal favourite planet.
It is deep wish that Pluto be reinstated into the elite division and I shall do whatever little I can towards that end. Henceforth I shall use the word 'plutonian' to refer to anything that is big or huge or giantly. You get my plan, don't you?
The post from the guest (remember the previous post in which I invited posts from you guys) would be the next one. Since you might be dying to know as to who this lucky guest is, I shall give you a clue.This person is from a certain planet, which you would have been told as kids to colour green by your,let's say 'dull' teachers inspite of the major presence of a certain liquid which you would have been told as kids to colour blue by your, let's say still 'dull' teachers.
I had also said that the first post in June would see the return of ....................................., and as always I stay true to my word. Anyway, whatever. I tend to believe that you guys are, let's say 'dull', but here is a chance for you to prove me wrong. Please post what you think I am talking about(basically fill the blank).
That's brings an end to this 'plutonian' post.
